OSHA has received an application from Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc. (ITSNA) to expand their recognition as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) to include two additional test standards. The agency has reviewed the application and made a preliminary finding that ITSNA meets the necessary requirements for this expansion. OSHA is inviting the public to comment on this preliminary determination, with a deadline for submission by May 12, 2025. After considering public input, the final decision will be made by OSHA's Acting Assistant Secretary.
Simple Explanation
OSHA is thinking about letting Intertek, a company that checks if things are safe, use two new ways to test things, and they want to know if people think this is a good idea. People can tell OSHA what they think until May 12, 2025, before they make a final decision.
